which don't provide a non-blocking interface.
This is a short term "fix" which changes a half-lose to a half-win.
The thread that accesses a device that does not provide a non-blocking
interface will block for its time slice.
A medium term solution would be to use rfork. A long-term solution
would be some sort of kernel thread/SMP implementation.
a reserved port, so why not the nfs rpc's themselves?
With user allowed mounts, this perhaps needs a closer look, but
on the other hand, a user could already specify the flag.
If normal users should not be able to use resserved ports, the kernel
should check for the flag at mount time.
(presumably because the kernel is old). Moved the declaration of a
variable realated to this sysctl outside of an unrelated ifdef.
Not fixed:
- this sysctl is badly named (nfs occurs twice).
- it's silly to have for FreeBSD in FreeBSD code, especially when
only half of the FreeBSD-dependent code is ifdefed.
The magic number conflicted with the rotting disabled one in ext2fs for
debug.doasyncfree.
Removed messy debugging variable/constant/sysctl debug.doreallocblks.
Lite2 removed it, and we don't use the code that it controls.
defining doff_t both here and in <ufs/ufs/dir.h> so that this file
is independent of <ufs/ufs/dir.h>. It still has old prerequisites
<sys/param.h> and <ufs/ufs/quota.h>, and a new Lite2 prerequisite of
<sys/lock.h>, sigh.
This might fix lsof, which was broken by namespace pollution giving
conflicting definitions of DIRBLKSIZ.
in uu_lock(). Add uu_lockerr() for turning the results of
uu_lock into something printable. Remove bogus section in man page
about race conditions allowing both processes to get the lock.
Include libutil.h and use uu_lock() correctly where it should.

it's internal malloc() implementation to try and avoid overstepping it's
resource limits (yuk!). Remain using libc's malloc(), but check the
resource limits right before trying to malloc the ramdisk space and leave
some spare memory for libc. In Andrey's words, the internal malloc
was "true evil".. Among it's sins is it's ability to allocate less memory
than asked for and still return success. stdio would just love that. :-)

passes on the status across fork/exec.
The previous version had some typos, referred to itself as link(2) in
one place :-), and didn't really match openbsd's implementation either.
Now that I've mentioned typos, hopefully our Typo Police and Xref Police
will be gentle with me. :-)
